Feb 25, 2026

Oppo has started teasing the Oppo Find N6 foldable phone for the past few days in China. Since the February month will end soon, the foldable phone is expected to break cover in March. In a recent Weibo post, tipster Bald Panda has revealed when it would go official. At the same time, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed additional details about its design and technology.

Oppo Find N6 launch date (rumored)

Honor Magic V6 and Oppo Find N6 launch dates seemingly tipped

Bald Panda’s Weibo post indicates that the Find N6 may launch on March 17 in China, with availability in other Asian markets expected shortly afterwards. While Oppo has not officially confirmed the timeline, the increasing frequency of leaks suggests that the announcement could be imminent. The Marc 1 highlighted in the above image is the Honor Magic V6 launch date.

Oppo Find N6 to be flattest foldable phone ever

According to DCS, the Find N6 could set a new benchmark for foldable design. He claims that TÜV Rheinland has tested the device and rated it as the “flattest” foldable phone it has evaluated so far, noting that the certification body has reviewed nearly every foldable currently available in the market. DCS attributes this to two key technologies: a seamless titanium alloy hinge and a self-healing memory glass solution aimed at reducing visible creases over time.

The tipster also hinted that another major global smartphone brand, which appears to Apple, may be working on similar self-healing materials, possibly inspired by Oppo’s approach, although no official confirmation has been provided.

Oppo Find N6 specifications (rumored)

Reports indicate that the Find N6 will feature an 8.12-inch internal folding display alongside a 6.62-inch cover screen for everyday use. The camera system may include a 200-megapixel primary sensor supported by a periscope telephoto lens, an ultra-wide camera, and a multispectral sensor. Two 20-megapixel selfie cameras are also expected, positioned for both folded and unfolded usage.

Under the hood, the device is likely to run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform in a 7-core configuration. It may house a 6,000mAh battery with support for 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. The foldable could offer up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, with rumours also pointing towards a variant equipped with satellite connectivity. A recent leak revealed that it will be available in purple, black, and white shades in China.

OnePlus 15T to support wireless charging, ultra-thin magnetic cooling accessory to debut alongside

By

-

Feb 25, 2026

Yesterday, a OnePlus executive confirmed that the OnePlus 15T will be launching soon. He also described it as a “dream phone” for those who prefer a compact flagship. Today, tipster Digital Chat Station revealed one feature of the 15T that was absent on the previous generation.

OnePlus 15T to offer wireless charging

According to DCS, the OnePlus 15T will be a top-notch flagship phone powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. He added that the device will support wireless charging as standard and offer full compatibility with Apple’s magnetic (MagSafe-style) accessory ecosystem.

To recall, the OnePlus 13T lacked support for wireless charging. DCS describes the 15T as a powerful small-sized device, calling it a “small powerhouse.”

In addition, the tipster says the brand will introduce what could be the industry’s first ultra-thin magnetic cooling accessory. The magnetic cooler is reportedly under 1cm in average thickness, making it notably slimmer than existing solutions.

DCS also shared an image to showcase the upcoming ultra-thin magnetic cooling accessory. The image above compares the new cooler (on the left) with a OnePlus 27W Freezing Point Magnetic Cooler (on the right), highlighting its significantly slimmer profile.

The side-by-side view emphasizes how thin the new accessory is, reportedly measuring under 1cm in average thickness, suggesting a more compact cooling solution designed for magnetic attachment. However, the new accessory does not feature an internal fan.

OnePlus 15T specifications (rumored)

Reports have revealed that the OnePlus 15T will feature a 6.32-inch OLED 1.5K 165Hz display, a 7,000mAh or 7,500mAh battery with 100W wired charging, up to 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM, and as much as 1TB of UFS 4.1 storage. For photography, it may feature a 200-megapixel or 50-megapixel main camera accompanied by a 50-megapixel telephoto camera and a 32-megapixel front-facing camera.

Spotify launches a cremation urn speaker, and yes, it streams playlists

By

Feb 25, 2026

Spotify has teamed up with Liquid Death for what might be one of its strangest hardware experiments yet — a Bluetooth speaker shaped like a cremation urn.

The product is called the Eternal Playlist Urn. It looks like something you’d expect to see on a mantelpiece, except it’s not designed to hold ashes. Instead, it’s a collectible speaker with a built-in Bluetooth system tucked into the lid.

Spotify says only 150 units will be sold in the United States, each priced at $495. Buyers get a 7-inch by 11.4-inch urn-shaped device that streams music and little else.

A Bluetooth speaker dressed for the afterlife

According to Spotify, this is “the world’s first urn speaker that can stream music.” In a blog post announcing the collaboration, Spotify wrote, “Life needs the music. So does the afterlife.”

The idea is simple. Once you receive the urn speaker, you can create what Spotify calls an “Eternal Playlist.” Users answer prompts such as “What’s your eternal vibe?” or “What’s your go-to ghost noise?” Based on those answers — along with your listening history — Spotify generates a custom playlist that can sync directly to the speaker. The playlist can also be shared with friends and family, turning the urn into a kind of permanent soundtrack device.

It’s not the first time Spotify has ventured into hardware, though those efforts have been limited. In 2022, the company partnered with IKEA on a portable Bluetooth lightbox speaker with Spotify quick-play functionality.

Before that, it launched Car Thing, a dashboard accessory meant to make streaming easier in older vehicles. Car Thing has since been discontinued, and Spotify has yet to introduce a standalone smart speaker under its own brand.

Liquid Death, meanwhile, has built its reputation on absurd and sometimes morbid marketing. The canned water company has released over-the-top products before, including a life-size snowman coffin-shaped cooler that reportedly drew more than 800 bidders and sold for $68,200. The brand thrives on turning dark humor into limited-edition merchandise, and the Eternal Playlist Urn fits neatly into that strategy.

Samsung stays on top in Europe, but Apple hits record 27% share

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

Samsung stayed on top of Europe’s smartphone market in 2025, but Apple was the one that really moved the needle.

Fresh data from Omdia shows Europe shipped 134.2 million smartphones last year. That’s down just 1% from 2024, not a dramatic drop, but it signals demand is still soft. Between tighter consumer spending and regulatory shifts like mandatory USB-C and eco-design requirements, the market never really found strong momentum.

Even so, the big names tightened their grip. Samsung and Apple together accounted for 62% of all shipments in the region.

Samsung held the No. 1 spot with 46.6 million units shipped, translating to a 35% market share — up slightly from 34% a year earlier. Growth was modest, roughly 200,000 additional units year-over-year, but the company managed to steady things after a slow start. Things picked up later in the year, helped by aggressive pricing on the Galaxy A16 and particularly strong demand for the Galaxy A56, which reportedly ended up as Europe’s best-selling smartphone overall in 2025.

Apple, meanwhile, had the stronger growth story.

Apple shipped 36.9 million iPhones in Europe, up 6% year-over-year, reaching a record 27% market share in the region. Much of that came from steady upgrade cycles and strong demand for the iPhone 16 series. The iPhone 16 Pro Max and iPhone 17 Pro Max performed well at the high end.

Xiaomi remained in third place with 21.8 million shipments and a 16% share, though volumes dipped slightly. Motorola followed with 7.7 million units (6% share), down 5% year-over-year. Honor broke into the top five with 3.8 million units and a 3% share, showing noticeable momentum toward the end of the year.

Overall, the market looks increasingly split. Premium devices continued to drive growth, while the budget segment stayed under pressure. Samsung leaned on its mid-range strength, Apple capitalized on premium upgrades, and both extended their lead.

Europe accounted for 10.8% of global smartphone shipments in 2025. Not the largest region, but still an important one.

Modified RTX 5090 dies at idle due to extreme temperature

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

Trying to squeeze every last bit of performance out of high-end GPUs is nothing new. But in the case of the RTX 5090, one ambitious modding attempt ended in a very expensive lesson.

In a recent YouTube video titled “I Killed My 5090…”, the creator behind Frame Chasers walked viewers through what started as a bold experiment on a Gigabyte RTX 5090 Aorus Master, and ended with a completely dead card.

The idea, at least on paper, made sense. Some Gigabyte variants include an unpopulated pad on the PCB for a second 12V-2×6 (16-pin) power connector. It’s there for alternative board designs, including versions that use dual connectors. Seeing that unused pad, Frame Chasers decided to take things further by soldering in a second power connector.

That wasn’t the only modification. He also performed a shunt resistor mod, a well-known (and risky) tweak that effectively bypasses NVidia’s built-in power limits. The goal was simple: let the GPU draw far more power than stock settings allow.

At first, it appeared to work. The system booted, benchmarks ran, and the card seemed stable under load. For a moment, it looked like the mod had paid off.

Then things went very wrong.

The card didn’t fail during a benchmark run or stress test. Instead, it died while idling. According to the video, two large holes were burned straight through the PCB, and at least one capacitor was knocked off the board from extreme heat.

Frame Chasers believes the failure came down to a dangerous combination of factors. The shunt mod reportedly increased baseline power draw, meaning the GPU was pulling more wattage even at idle. On top of that, the fans weren’t spinning despite rising temperatures. The card was also set to “performance mode” in the NVidia Control Panel, which keeps clocks elevated instead of allowing the GPU to downclock at idle.

The GPU die and VRAM chips themselves may still be intact. The catastrophic damage seems localized to the PCB and surrounding power components.

For enthusiasts, extreme overclocking can be thrilling. There’s always the temptation to push just a little further. But this incident is a stark reminder that modern GPUs operate within tightly controlled power and thermal envelopes for a reason.

Is Meizu shutting down its phone business after Meizu 23 reportedly scrapped?

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

Recent reports circulating on Chinese social platforms suggest fresh uncertainty around Meizu’s smartphone division. The possible restructuring within Xingji (Starji) Meizu raises questions about the future of upcoming devices such as the Meizu 23 series. While there is no official confirmation yet, the developments have sparked wide discussion across the industry.

Meizu phone business suspension claims surface

Alleged Maimai post claiming Meizu 23 halt and phone business shutdown.

A post circulating on the Chinese workplace networking platform Maimai claims that Xingji Meizu may shut down its smartphone business, with related teams facing full layoffs. According to the anonymous user, the much-anticipated Meizu 23 series has effectively been halted.

The post further alleges that Flyme Auto will operate independently, with leadership transitioning to a new head, and will be integrated under Geely-backed Yikatong as part of the broader automotive ecosystem.

The message also states that departments unrelated to the phone business wind-down could complete restructuring in March, with N+1 compensation reportedly offered to affected employees. Staff members holding company shares are said to be required to consult HR individually regarding follow-up arrangements.

Despite the reported changes, the post claims that the Meizu brand will not disappear and will remain within the Geely system, with other Geely subsidiaries potentially continuing related operations.

Xingji Meizu has not issued a public response so far.

Earlier cost pressures had raised concerns

DCS warns of rising chip costs and paused flagship development, while a commenter speculates that Meizu could be affected.

Earlier in February, tipster Digital Chat Station had highlighted rising memory and chipset costs, suggesting that several brands could delay or cancel new launches in 2026. Online discussions speculated that Meizu might be among the affected companies.

Notably, at the 2026 Meizu Fans New Year event, company executives had confirmed that the Meizu 23 was in development and would feature the narrowest bezels in the brand’s history. However, they also acknowledged that the iconic white front panel would be dropped due to manufacturing limitations.

The latest reports now cast uncertainty over those earlier plans.

OnePlus 15R May Become More Expensive in India Soon, Here’s What We Know

By

Sudhanshu

Feb 24, 2026

The OnePlus 15R may soon become more expensive in India, according to recent leaks from tipsters. The smartphone launched last year with a starting price of Rs 47,999. While OnePlus has not confirmed any revision yet, multiple sources suggest that a price increase could be implemented in the coming weeks.

Tipster Abhishek Yadav claims that the price hike could take effect starting March 1. Another tipster, Debayan Roy (@Gadgetsdata), suggests that the increase may fall in the range of Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,000 and could roll out within about two weeks. If this happens, the base variant of the OnePlus 15R could be priced around Rs 51,999 or Rs 52,999. Since there is no official announcement, the information should be treated as unconfirmed for now.

In terms of specifications, the OnePlus 15R is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, built on a 3nm process and paired with the Adreno 840 GPU. In India, the device is available with 12GB LPDDR5X Ultra RAM and either 256GB or 512GB UFS 4.1 storage. It runs Android 16 with OxygenOS 16 out of the box.

The phone features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution of 2800 × 1272 pixels. It supports a variable refresh rate from 60Hz to 165Hz, along with 3840Hz PWM dimming and DC dimming for improved eye comfort. Corning Gorilla Glass 7i is used for protection.

For photography, the rear setup includes a 50-megapixel Sony IMX906 main camera with optical image stabilization and an f/1.8 aperture, along with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera offering a 112-degree field of view. Rear video recording goes up to 4K at 120fps. The front camera is 32 megapixels with autofocus and supports 4K video at 30fps.

The device packs a 7,400mAh battery with 80W SuperVOOC fast charging. Connectivity options include 5G SA and NSA bands, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, and USB Type-C. Additional features include stereo speakers, an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, an infrared sensor, and IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for dust and water resistance.

Realme GT 9 Pro may feature dual 200MP cameras; GT 9 could also flaunt 200MP camera

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

In October 2025, Realme unveiled the Realme GT 8 and GT 8 Pro. While the former featured a 50-megapixel triple camera unit, the latter debuted as the company’s first phone with a 200-megapixel camera. Recent leaks surrounding the Realme GT 9 series reveal that the lineup may feature dual 200-megapixel cameras.

Realme GT 9 series camera capabilities tipped

As is known, several smartphone brands are expected to offer dual 200-megapixel cameras on their flagship offerings this year. Some of these include the Oppo Find X9s Pro, Oppo Find X9 Ultra, and Vivo X300 Ultra. As seen in the screengrab below, tipster Smart Pikachu claims that the Realme GT 9 series’ current plan appears to favor a dual 200-megapixel camera setup aimed at pushing imaging performance higher, along with strengthened co-branded image tuning.

The Realme GT 8 Pro already features a 200-megapixel primary camera, and it appears that the Realme GT 9 Pro’s rear camera setup could include a pair of 200-megapixel sensors, likely for the main and periscope telephoto cameras. The leak suggests that the Ricoh partnership will offer deeper tuning for an enhanced photography experience.

Shown above is a Wisdom Pikachu Weibo post from earlier this month. In it, he claims that the entire GT 9 lineup will have a 200-megapixel camera. This suggests that the vanilla Realme GT 9 may also feature a 200-megapixel camera, but the company may not offer dual 200-megapixel sensors on this phone in a bid to differentiate it from the Pro variant.

At present, nothing else is known about the Realme GT 9 series. The lineup will likely be announced in October this year. The GT 8 and GT 8 Pro were powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5 chipsets, respectively. Therefore, the GT 9 Pro may feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, but it remains to be seen whether the GT 9 will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.

Galaxy S26 series pre-order deals revealed: up to €350 in savings

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

But just ahead of the official reveal, a fresh leak has already outlined what could be some pretty attractive pre-order incentives for the Galaxy S26, S26+, and S26 Ultra in Europe.

According to reliable French leaker billbil-kun, posting via Dealabs, Samsung is preparing a mix of storage upgrades and trade-in bonuses that could save buyers as much as €350 in the Eurozone, assuming everything stacks the way it’s expected to.

Pricing reportedly starts at €999 for the base Galaxy S26 with 256GB of storage. Interestingly, Samsung appears to be moving away from the 128GB entry model seen on the Galaxy S25, making 256GB the new starting point. Pre-orders are expected to open right after Unpacked wraps up, with shipping beginning around March 11.

One of the headline offers is a free storage upgrade. Buyers who pre-order a 256GB model may receive the 512GB version at no extra cost, a perk that typically represents a €200 to €300 value, depending on the device. Similar “double storage” promotions have been popular in past Galaxy launches, and it looks like Samsung may be leaning on that strategy again in Europe (including France, and possibly the UK).

Trade-in bonuses are also part of the package. Leaks suggest an extra €100 in trade-in credit for those pre-ordering the Galaxy S26 or S26+, and €150 for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. When combined with the storage upgrade, that could push total savings into the €300–€350 range for certain configurations.

In practical terms, that means a 512GB Galaxy S26 could effectively land closer to €899 in some scenarios, depending on the device you trade in. For buyers eyeing the top-end 1TB Galaxy S26 Ultra, there’s also talk of an additional €200 pre-order discount, which would stack on top of the other incentives.

All of this fits Samsung’s broader strategy. Offering storage bumps and boosted trade-in credits is a relatively low-friction way to drive early orders without officially lowering retail prices.

It’s also worth noting that incentives vary by region. In the US, for example, early reservation offers have included smaller credits and larger trade-in ceilings instead. Europe, on the other hand, seems to be getting the more straightforward storage-upgrade approach this time around.

Here’s your first look at the Oppo Find N6 in Purple and White

By

-

Feb 24, 2026

Oppo has started teasing its next foldable, the Find N6, ahead of a launch in China. There’s still no official release date. But in classic internet fashion, the renders are already here.

A leak posted on the Chinese social media platform Weibo gives us our first real look at the Oppo Find N6 in purple and white.

At first glance, it doesn’t look dramatically different from last year’s Oppo Find N5. It has the same circular camera module and color options.

We did notice a few changes, though. None of the leaked models show a leather back as the purple variant of the Find N5 did. And the flash has been moved outside the camera module, which slightly changes the rear layout.

What we don’t see in the leak is the inner display — so the most important part of any foldable remains under wraps for now.

Oppo Find N6 specifications

Speaking of which, the Find N6 is expected to feature an 8.12-inch inner display paired with a 6.62-inch outer screen.

Powering the device could be Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (7-core) platform. The phone has already surfaced on Geekbench with that chip onboard, suggesting Oppo isn’t holding back on performance.

In benchmark results, the Find N6 scored 3,524 in single-core and 9,090 in multi-core tests. The listing also indicates that the device runs Android 16 and comes with 16GB of RAM.

As for the camera, the main rear sensor is said to be 200 megapixels. It’s reportedly joined by a periscope telephoto lens, an ultra-wide camera, and even a multispectral sensor.

According to reports, the Find N6 could launch on March 17, shortly after China’s Spring Festival. It will launch in a standard and a Beidou satellite version. For now, though, we’re still waiting for Oppo to make it official.

Xiaomi 17 Colours Confirmed for India as Xiaomi 17 Ultra Camera Specs Revealed Ahead of Launch

By

Sudhanshu

-

Feb 24, 2026

Xiaomi India has revealed camera specifications and color variants for its upcoming flagship phones launching on February 28, 2026, through an Amazon India microsite listing.

The Xiaomi 17 will arrive in three colors: Blue, Black, and an exclusive variant appearing to be Green based on teasers. Globally, Xiaomi confirmed four colors, including pink, alongside these three options.

The Xiaomi 17 Ultra positions itself as a night photography specialist, featuring a Leica 1-inch camera sensor and LOFIC HDR technology for precise exposure control in low light. The device features a Leica-tuned 200MP telephoto sensor covering 75mm to 100mm focal range with mechanical optical zoom, providing hardware-based adjustments rather than digital processing alone.

India appears set to receive only the standard Ultra variant. The microsite shows no evidence of the Leica Edition model, which launched in China with a physical rotating “Master Zoom Ring” for manual control of zoom, exposure, and white balance. BIS certification records listed only the standard model, reinforcing this likelihood.

The standard Xiaomi 17 Ultra is expected to feature a 6.9-inch 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Dragon Crystal Glass 3 protection. The camera system includes a 50MP primary sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 200MP periscope telephoto for advanced zoom capabilities.

Battery specifications point to a 6,800mAh capacity with 90W wired and 50W wireless charging support. The device could mirror China’s configuration options: 16GB + 512GB and 16GB + 1TB variants.

In China, Xiaomi launched both standard and Leica versions of the 17 Ultra starting at 7,999 Yuan ($1,160) in Black and Off-White. The Leica Edition included photography-focused enhancements like specialized color processing, exclusive shooting modes, and refined design elements alongside the mechanical zoom control.

The Xiaomi 17 series will launch alongside the Xiaomi Pad 8 on February 28, 2026, in India.

Xiaomi is getting ready to unveil the Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra globally on February 28. A new leak now suggests that these might not be the only phones launching that day.

According to Digital Chat Station, the Xiaomi 17T and Xiaomi 17T Pro might also launch globally on the same day. The leak corroborates our previous report, which revealed that the two phones would launch four months ahead of their predecessors.

Xiaomi 17T series specifications

The tipster also revealed some specs of the phones. According to the leak, the lineup will use a combination of Dimensity 8-series and Dimensity 9-series flagship platforms.

More specifically, the Xiaomi 17T could run on the Dimensity 8500, while the Xiaomi 17T Pro will be powered by the Dimensity 9500s chip.

The phones will also retain the Leica imaging solution, while the 17T Pro will exclusively feature a periscope telephoto lens.

Thanks to a codebase leak, we also know the camera specs of the Xiaomi 17T. It will feature a triple rear camera setup led by an OmniVision OV50E sensor. It will be joined by an OmniVision OV13B sensor and a Samsung ISOCELL JN5 sensor, handling ultra-wide and telephoto duties. There’s also mention of a Samsung ISOCELL S5KKDS sensor for selfies.

For comparison, the Xiaomi 15T used a 50MP Light Fusion 800 main camera, a 50MP telephoto lens, and a 12MP ultra-wide camera. It also featured a 32MP selfie camera.

The Xiaomi 17T is also expected to flaunt a 6,500mAh battery. That’s a sizable jump from last year’s Xiaomi 15T, which packed a 5,500mAh battery. However, the charging speed remains unchanged at 67W

Galaxy S26 series EU energy labels confirm battery sizes and endurance hours before launch

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series is just hours away from going official at the February 25 Unpacked event, but thanks to mandatory EU energy labels, we already have some confirmed details.

The information comes from official European certification listings. These labels are required for devices sold in the EU and include rated (minimum guaranteed) battery capacities, advertised “typical” capacities, standardized battery endurance results, and even durability metrics.

Starting with the base model, the Galaxy S26 gets a rated 4,175 mAh battery, marketed as 4,300 mAh typical. That’s a modest bump over the Galaxy S25’s roughly 4,000 mAh cell. In the EU’s standardized mixed-use test, it’s rated for 51 hours on a single charge. That suggests Samsung has managed at least incremental gains in efficiency, not just raw capacity.

The Galaxy S26+ sticks with a rated 4,755 mAh battery (advertised as 4,900 mAh typical). Endurance is listed at 55 hours, which either matches or very slightly improves on its predecessor.

Then there’s the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which continues Samsung’s now very long 5,000 mAh tradition. The rated capacity sits at 4,855 mAh, marketed as 5,000 mAh typical, unchanged for six straight generations. It also achieves 55 hours in the EU test.

Beyond battery size and endurance, the EU labels reveal some additional details. All three models score Class A for energy efficiency and drop resistance, carry IP68 dust and water protection, and receive a Class C repairability rating.

The labels indicate 80% capacity retention after 1,200 full charge cycles, which is a noticeable drop from the 2,000-cycle figure associated with the S25 series. That’s roughly a 40% reduction on paper.

All of this lines up fairly well with previous leaks. The standard S26 finally gets a capacity bump, while the Plus and Ultra models lean more on efficiency than larger cells. Whether that’s due to EU transport regulations around battery shipping thresholds, internal space constraints, or Samsung’s design priorities isn’t fully clear — but the strategy is consistent.

We now have concrete figures for capacity, endurance, and durability before the official reveal even begins. The real test, of course, will be hands-on reviews and real-world usage.
